Chapter 2040 There is a Girl in the Jianghu
A child's years pass by like a flash.
It seemed like just a blink of an eye, and Shi Li had spent more than ten years in the Canglan Sect.
The baby who could only cry in the cradle grew into a graceful young girl.
In the afternoon, there were few people in this area of the back mountain, only large areas of wild grass and dense shade from trees.
After finally avoiding being forced to read or write, Shi Li skipped to a shaded area and prepared to take a nap.
She hasn't had a good life in the Canglan Sect over the years.
Although Mu Ziqing accepted her as his disciple reluctantly for the sake of face, he never really taught her any martial arts. Instead, she was forced to read and write since she was three years old.
To this end, Mu Ziqing gave a beautiful excuse - to guide her from a young age to prevent her from going astray.
That's fine, there's no harm in reading.
But someone revealed Shi Li's background to others, and everyone in the Canglan Sect knew that she was the daughter of the big devil of the Demon Cult. No matter where she went, she was bound to be pointed at.
Those who were a little better treated her as a plague and stayed away from her; some who were naturally evil used her poor background as an excuse to cause trouble for her behind her back.
From the leader to the disciples of the Canglan Sect, everyone turned a blind eye to this.
The noise was too loud, and Mu Ziqing would just say nonchalantly: "They are just children, it's no big deal."
But the prerequisite is that Shi Li does not fight back.
Once, other disciples played a prank on Shi Li, but she saw through it in advance. As a result, she got what she deserved and fell down the stairs, scraping her arm.
After Mu Ziqing found out, he took out a rattan stick as thick as a finger and hit her with it.
"It was just a joke between fellow disciples, but you were so cruel!" Mu Ziqing's face was ferocious, and he looked at Shi Li with eyes that seemed to wish he could tear her into pieces.
Shi Li was caught off guard and hit by a cane. She almost fell to the ground in pain.
But she was not a real child, and she would not stand still and be punished. She ran out regardless of everything and just happened to run into Xie Huanyan.
Seeing Mu Ziqing chasing out with a rattan stick in his hand with a ferocious look on his face, Xie Huanyan was also stunned for a moment, "Master, what is this..."
"She framed a fellow disciple and we cannot tolerate her." Mu Ziqing was very concerned about his image in front of Xie Huanyan. He immediately put away the cane and explained patiently.
Xie Huanyan turned his head to glance at Shi Li who was hiding behind him, with a somewhat subtle expression.
Immediately, he looked up and said to Mu Ziqing, "Junior Brother Liao wanted to play a trick on her and smeared tung oil on the steps. As a result, she slipped when she stepped on them. It had nothing to do with her."
The wind blew, and Mu Ziqing showed an embarrassed expression.
But then, she found another excuse and pointed at Shi Li and said, "Since she knew, she should have warned you. It's not right to watch a fellow disciple get hurt!"
[Is this woman going to die?]
[I used to think she was just a love-brained person, but now I think she has no brains at all. Is it because she just doesn't like the anchor? ]
[This is really a grand bullying. Fortunately, the anchor is an adult. If it was really a little girl, what a trauma she would have left in her heart! ]
Shi Li: ...
There is also a huge shadow in my heart!
However, in front of Xie Huanyan, Mu Ziqing still wanted to save some dignity for himself and did not attack Shi Li again.
"You should kneel down at the foot of the cliff and reflect on yourself."
After leaving these words, Mu Ziqing no longer paid attention to Shi Li. Instead, he looked at Xie Huanyan gently and showed concern for his diet and daily life.
Shi Li simply left.
She would not kneel down stupidly at the foot of the cliff. No one would notice her, and she could stand or sit whenever she wanted.
But she didn't expect that Xie Huanyan would come soon after she arrived at the bottom of the cliff.
